'''Logo:''' The text, ribbons, and mask, along with its wreath, are now all in a lighter, more metallic-looking shade of {{Font color|gold|gold}}. The web address below the lion now reads "<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman';">'''MGM.COM'''</span>". Leo | '''Logo:''' Almost identical to the previous logo, except with a lot of enhancements. The text, ribbons, and mask, along with its wreath, are now all in a lighter, more metallic-looking shade of {{Font color|gold|gold}}. The web address below the lion now reads "<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman';">'''MGM.COM'''</span>". The footage of Leo is also brighter. | ||
'''Trivia:''' This logo was actually based off the print MGM logo that's seen on the MGM Home Entertainment/MGM DVD print logos as seen on VHS and DVD covers and other MGM merchandise. The gold mask seen on this logo looks similar to the one in the 1993 MGM/UA Home Video logo. The footage of Leo in this logo is actually taken from a negative master of the 1958 film ''Cat on a Hot Tin Roof'', because the original 1957 3-roar footage was believed to be lost. Leo was then given an HD enhancement, with his mane and ears digitally remodeled to remove film fuzz and blemishes. They were also made to overlap the film ribbons in order to give the logo more depth.
